What Are You Reading?


Sheila at One Persons Journey Through a World of Books hosts this weekly event where we celebrate what we are reading for the week as well as books completed the previous week.

If you participated in the Read-A-Thon, have you recovered?  I sat around all day yesterday recovering! 

Last week two of the seven books I read were very depressing reads.  Shadow Tag by Louise Erdrich  and The Unnamed by Josh Ferris.  Thankfully the rest of the books I read were not as depressing:
Fired-Up by Jayne Ann Krentz,
The Broken Teaglass by Emily Arsenault
Die For You by Lisa Unger,
Life Sentences by Laura Lippman
Crazy Beautiful by Lauren Bratz Logsted

This week I am choosing from:
The Dust of 100 Dogs
Watersmeet
Blue Plate Special
Blood Vines
Maggie Rose

I bought Blood Vines because I liked the cover. It's one of the few times I've actually done that.

Enjoy your reading week!

I have Life Sentences from the library. I still need to get to that one. :)

I actually did recover surprisingly well from the readathon. I biked and roller bladed yesterday.... and cleaned up around the house. No idea where that spurt on energy came from except maybe because I did nothing Saturday but sit and read and cheer. :)

Have a great week Nise!

I'm curious to see what you think of Dust of 100 Dogs...I already stay away from Erdrich but now I'll make sure I don't bother with The Unnamed!
